Katie: Whats up and welcome to The Wellness Mama Podcast. I’m Katie from wellnessmama.com. And this episode is all concerning the root causes of infertility, why we’re seeing declining sperm rely and repair it. And I’m right here with Dr. Nashat Latib. I actually loved this dialog. She has over 20 years of scientific expertise. She was a Board Licensed Emergency Doctor and now she’s considered one of only some Purposeful Drugs Licensed Physicians on the earth, specializing in regenerative medication and particularly fertility.
And she or he shares her personal private story, what led her into this work from being an emergency doctor and the way it got here from a narrative inside her personal life. And we additionally get to go deep on the purposeful medication facet of fertility, which I’ve not but touched on on this podcast. She talks about quite a lot of the components that go into fertility, why in lots of instances {couples} are capable of get pregnant naturally, even when they’ve been advised they’ll’t, or even when they’ve had IVF or IUI. And she or he takes a root trigger method that’s very individualized couple by couple, but additionally shares quite a lot of the common issues which might be useful on this podcast. She’s a very enjoyable interview in particular person to speak to, and I believe that you’ll get pleasure from this dialog and be taught rather a lot. So let’s be part of Dr. Nashat. Dr. Nashat, welcome and thanks a lot for being right here.
Nashat: Thanks for having me. I’m honored to be right here.
Katie: I believe we’re going to get into some essential subjects in the present day and also you’re going to get to unfold quite a lot of perception into some probably very complicated areas of medication. And for background, earlier than we bounce into these specifics, I might love so that you can give us just a little bit of truly your personal story as a result of I do know you began off as an ER physician after which transitioned into the work that you simply do now. And I believe this story additionally entails the delivery of your three kids in a method. So I might love to listen to your background and your story and the way it led to what’s now your life’s work.
Nashat: Yeah, nice query. That’s a really concerned story. However yeah, heaps and many years within the emergency room. And I spent a few years truly working in a stage one trauma middle within the Bronx. So you possibly can think about the scope of issues that I noticed was very, very broad. I lived in New York Metropolis for about 15 years earlier than I moved to Houston.
And what I noticed within the emergency room was I used to be discovering that we have been utilizing an acute care mannequin to deal with continual illness. And so what occurred within the emergency room was we ended up having a revolving door. So sufferers would are available and we’d deal with them. We’d put a band help on the issue. They might exit the door after which they’d instantly return and are available again.
So I began to note this sample and I assumed, okay, effectively, clearly there’s one thing improper with this conventional mannequin. And there’s in all probability some paradigm shifts which might be wanted, however fairly truthfully, I didn’t actually know what or how, as a result of I had gone to medical college and I used to be mainly simply working towards what I had been taught.
So quick ahead, a few years later, I sadly misplaced my mother in 2018 and he or she was fingers down in all probability the healthiest particular person I knew. She labored out frequently, she ate natural, you title it, she did all of it. Actually advanced carbohydrates, she type of did all of the issues. And sadly begin developed a really quickly progressive neurodegenerative illness. And right here I used to be as an ER physician, saved lives for a dwelling, but I couldn’t save my mother.
And so she went from effectively and spinning with me a number of instances per week to gone over a course of seven months. So it was very, very tragic. She was my greatest buddy. And so I actually used her as a supply of inspiration for the whole lot I do in the present day. And it was in that second that I noticed that the standard medical mannequin was not simply failing me and… My mother, one of many folks I’ve liked probably the most in my life, but additionally my sufferers.
And I began to look into different issues. Now, after all, I type of began this journey in all probability a number of, many, a few years earlier than that, as a result of I’ve at all times been very dedicated to well being and being proactive about it. However I began to do some purposeful medication coaching, and that’s after I realized, okay, that is actually the course that I have to go. And, you recognize, by that time, I had already had three children. You recognize, utilizing the standard fertility method. So clearly in medical college, you undergo years of coaching. I used to be just a little older after I began. And so I fell into the class of unexplained infertility. So all my ranges have been regular. I used to be used to having common cycles. After which rapidly, right here I’m making an attempt month after month and unable to have these infants and develop the household of my desires.
So it was attention-grabbing after I began to discover purposeful medication and went again and checked out the entire ladders that I had achieved throughout my fertility journey. And I had achieved a number of rounds of IUI and IVF, spent effectively over 100 thousand {dollars} on therapies to have my three kids. And whereas I’ve at all times, you recognize, and nonetheless proceed to really feel extraordinarily blessed, there was one thing very damaged after I seemed again into my recordsdata and realized that there have been clear root causes that have been protecting me from getting pregnant, and that in actuality, I didn’t want any of these fertility therapies within the first place. And that was an enormous aha second for me after I realized one thing has received to offer and one thing has received to alter.
Katie: That is smart. And I do know that time period unexplained infertility appears to be one of many issues that’s on the rise. And to me, it is smart that… Not clearly having the medical background right here, however it is smart that there could be root causes. As a result of my understanding is that issues like our fertility and positively like our pores and skin well being, our physique views these as like not first line of protection vital. So if one thing else is occurring within the physique that appears extra acute, the physique’s going to prioritize and it’d even be, to my understanding, one thing so simple as like elevated stress ranges. Or if the physique thinks it’s at risk, it might not need to prioritize the assets for issues like having the most effective pores and skin we may have or making a child if it doesn’t really feel prefer it’s protected to try this.
However I do know there’s in all probability much more that goes into it past that. However is that what you imply by root causes? That there may be underlying issues within the physique that aren’t truly inflicting a everlasting infertility, however a brief one whereas the physique offers with these different issues?
Nashat: Completely, and also you hit the nail on the top. And there are such a lot of neglected root causes that the standard fertility paradigm merely doesn’t deal with. So intestine well being, for example, is a very large one. Stress, you named it. I imply, the truth is that stress impacts our cortisol rhythm. So how a lot cortisol our our bodies naturally produce over the course of a day is altered after we are below extreme quantities of stress.
And right here’s the loopy factor is that our cortisol ranges truly intrude with our intercourse hormone manufacturing. You recognize, they intrude with our thyroid. They intrude with our sleep and our capacity to relaxation and restore at evening, which is such an vital a part of mobile restore. I imply, I may go on and on with regard to the foundation causes. There are multifold. And sadly, the standard method to fertility actually doesn’t take a look at them. There’s a lot of stones left unturned.
And I can’t inform you what number of {couples} have come to me and have been advised, for example, they want a donor egg or, you recognize, IVF is the one possibility. And one, they get pregnant with out IVF and two, they find yourself doing it with their very own egg and never with a donor egg. So completely there are root causes.
There’s truly type of a… A vignette or just a little metaphor that I used to type of speak about fertility and all of the fertility components. And, you recognize, it’s actually female and male we now have to think about. I additionally assume that’s one of many greatest issues is in our conventional mannequin. Oftentimes we’re targeted on the girl. And we now have to deal with each side of the equation. And so I type of, I don’t know in case you ever performed with dominoes if you have been little and lined them up and also you push one down and so they all go down. I see in case you line it, I consider the dominoes as mainly female and male fertility components all blended collectively. And they also’re all blended collectively, we’re lining them up. But when just a few of them are just a bit too far aside, we’re going to push down the dominoes and so they’re not all going to go down, which doesn’t imply that you could’t get pregnant. It simply means we have to make some shifts, transfer just a few dominoes just a little nearer collectively, after which we will get pregnant naturally. Does that make sense?
Katie: It does make sense. And I might guess conjures up quite a lot of hope in {couples}. I’m positive that desirous to have a child and never with the ability to is a really deeply painful expertise. So in all probability that message brings quite a lot of hope to {couples} who’re experiencing that. However it additionally looks like that is going to be, it’s going to have constructive ripples in so many areas as a result of I had one other visitor that defined it so superbly. She mentioned, each time you’re having what you’d name a symptom, your physique is definitely mounting a therapeutic response. Your physique’s making an attempt to heal and both perhaps wants one thing it doesn’t have or it has one thing it doesn’t want. But when we will determine assist our our bodies in that therapeutic response, then what we view because the symptom usually goes away.
And so I believe your root trigger perspective takes that into consideration so superbly and in addition conjures up hope that for lots of those {couples}, perhaps their infertility doesn’t want these extra intensive therapies. And I might guess by addressing that root trigger, they’re in all probability additionally rising their odds of a more healthy being pregnant and higher outcomes for the child as effectively, as a result of they’re attending to the extra foundational issues. Is that your expertise as effectively?
Nashat: Completely, completely, 100%. What we do within the 90 days pre-conception immediately influences egg and sperm well being, and in addition clearly influences one, the probabilities of conception and the probabilities of having a wholesome child. And really the scientific analysis and research have proven that by being proactive within the pre-conception interval, which is basically 90 days previous to conception, 90 to 120 days, you’ll even have a baby with fewer well being issues, not simply short-term, however truly continual long-term issues too.
I’m undecided in case you’re acquainted or our viewers is accustomed to the idea of Epigenetics, however Epigenetics is type of all the fad proper now as a result of we even have the facility, though we cross down the identical DNA, we will’t change the DNA that we cross down, however our DNA is advanced. So we now have on and off switches for our DNA. And by making the appropriate selections and making ready our our bodies, optimizing our well being throughout the 90 to 120 day preconception interval, we will truly activate the great DNA and switch off the unhealthy DNA. And so what you get is definitely a genetically extra favorable little one. Which is wild.
Katie: That’s fascinating and it is smart. I’m curious if perhaps new knowledge has up to date our understanding of this space, however I do know for a very long time it was thought that egg well being was considerably static and if that was the issue, there was nothing you would do to enhance it. Is that also the case or as we’ve discovered extra, is that truly not as static as we as soon as thought?
Nashat: Completely false, 100%. Yeah, it’s completely a fluid factor. And AMH is a quantity that may typically be actually traumatic for ladies who’re making an attempt to get pregnant. So AMH stands for Anti-Mullerian Hormone and it’s historically used as an indicator of ovarian reserve and like what number of eggs you’ve left. And actually what’s AMH? I actually assume it’s vital for ladies to know that AMH is solely a hormone that’s produced by the outer layer of the egg that’s type of in hibernation within the ovary. And the cool factor is that by influencing egg well being, we will truly improve AMH. AMH was as soon as considered a static quantity that doesn’t change. Nonetheless, we’ve confirmed time and time once more that that’s certainly false.
Actually, my protocol has as a lot as quadrupled AMH in girls. So historically, a lady with a low AMH is probably not thought-about, for example, an IVF candidate. Particularly if they’ve an AMH as little as say 0.2. However in my expertise, I’ve been capable of work on egg well being proactively with my {couples}, quadruple that AMH, after which they find yourself getting pregnant naturally and never even needing IVF. So it’s completely one thing we will affect. It’s by no means too late. And that’s a part of the rationale that I’m not, I don’t purchase into the idea that, you recognize, 35 is just like the useless finish of the street, which is what we’ve been taught. What’s caught in medical college?
So, you recognize, sadly, I believe a part of the issue is also that. It takes about 50 to 100 years for scientific research and analysis to type of turn out to be the usual of care. And so quite a lot of what we be taught in medical college is basically antiquated and is predicated on research which might be utterly outdated versus I discover that in a root explanation for purposeful medication method we’re truly being proactive and taking motion on research, analysis, and biochemistry that we’ve come to know within the final 10 to twenty years.
Katie: That’s such a very good level. And it’s one of many causes I’m so fond of claiming on right here that on the finish of the day, we’re every our personal main well being care supplier, as a result of we’re those selecting the inputs that go in our physique every day, we’re selecting our life-style and eating regimen components that may make such an enormous distinction. And we’re the one ones who’ve the accountability for our personal well being. And I do assume the most effective outcomes occur when you’ve suppliers such as you who’re deeply invested in studying the leading edge science, understanding the affected person, taking a look at like asking the appropriate questions and attending to first ideas of this. However I believe it’s additionally actually vital for folks to be the drivers of their very own well being and understand how a lot energy we now have truly to shift so lots of this stuff in fertility and in each space of well being, I really feel like.
One other space I do know of this that’s usually talked about, and I’ve seen quite a lot of information headlines round is the decline in sperm rely and the beautiful drastic numbers from even two generations in the past to now. Are you seeing that in your apply as effectively? And is that additionally reversible in particular person males?
Nashat: Completely. So truly, sperm counts are projected to go to zero within the subsequent 40 to 50 years. How about that? I don’t know the place that’s going to go away, you recognize, our kids and their kids sooner or later. However sure, completely. That is likely one of the causes that I mandate after I work with {couples}, I actually need to work with each members of the couple, female and male, as a result of 50% of infertility does have a male issue related to it. So, you recognize, it’s not utterly the person’s fault 50% of the time, however 50% of the time, there’s something contributing to the state of affairs.
I believe one of many issues is, for example, quite a lot of motility and morphology are at a decrease than they’ve actually ever been earlier than. And people numbers are persevering with to say no. So that’s one thing that we’re very proactively engaged on. And sure, it’s completely reversible. Once more, it takes, you recognize, I believe one of many key issues for folks to know is that it takes about 90 to 120 days for the sperm to develop. So we will begin from zero each time and create superb, you recognize, sperm high quality, if we do the work. However it’s actually about optimizing, you recognize, the physique in a wholesome atmosphere.
And that type of ties into what you have been speaking about earlier. And I at all times say the physique is wise, proper? So the physique is aware of when it’s a protected place to create a child, and when it ought to perhaps not. So I at all times inform my {couples} who’re struggling to conceive, it’s not as a result of you possibly can’t get pregnant, your physique is speaking to you, and it’s screaming for assist. So let’s give it the assistance and assist that it wants, in order that we will get you simply, you recognize, to your purpose of rising your loved ones and pure conception.
Katie: I like that. And likewise to your level, I’ve seen this occur in different areas of medication as effectively. The way you talked about it may well take a very long time for one thing to get from analysis into apply, which is smart, understanding how busy docs are and all the method that has to occur from one thing to be validated after which taught after which now turn out to be widespread apply. However I do assume it usually means there are gaps that individuals like purposeful medication docs and even sufferers, I see quite a lot of sufferers, I’ve seen it within the thyroid house are type of driving that change by requesting totally different lab assessments or requesting totally different therapies. In order that’s again to that complete the most effective outcomes occur when you’ve an invested affected person and an informed physician working collectively as companions. So I like that that’s the way you view it as effectively.
And also you talked about your protocol that you’ve. I’m curious, I do know there’s in all probability rather a lot that goes into this, however what are among the baseline issues that you simply suggest to {couples} to start that strategy of enhancing fertility?
Nashat: Yeah, effectively, the very first thing is basically getting a whole image of what’s happening. And I truly did a reel about this in my Instagram speaking concerning the labs that you actually need to get to work at fertility. You recognize, I’m not an enormous believer of needing loopy costly superior purposeful lab testing. Sure, there’s a time and a spot and I do use all of these assessments in my apply, however we will get actually, we will get began in a quite simple method by simply doing common serum labs. So issues that I take a look at, for example, are some markers for the intestine. We’re taking a look at markers for irritation. We’re on the lookout for the opportunity of any autoimmune illness, thyroid. After all we’re trying on the hormones, however fertility is not only about hormones and reproductive organs, it’s about the complete physique. So I do care what your lipid ranges are. There are quite a lot of issues that I care about with a purpose to put together for conception that aren’t essentially prioritized in your regular fertility journey. In order that’s positively one of many issues that I search for when it comes to evaluation.
And I additionally take a look at signs as a result of typically, such as you mentioned, the symptom is, it offers us quite a lot of perception. We in purposeful medication have one thing referred to as a Medical Signs Questionnaire, which is a scientific instrument that we use to trace progress and in addition get an concept of what could also be happening below the hood that’s not exhibiting up within the labs. As a result of it’s not, sure, we’re taking a look at labs and biochemistry, however I additionally care about what my sufferers and purchasers are feeling. So if someone involves me and so they’re like, I’m sleeping terribly, I’ve utter exhaustion each morning. And though I sleep for eight hours, I really feel like I’ve been hit by a truck within the morning. I’ll not essentially see that on an everyday serum lab, however that’s info for me that then I can glean from and take motion to create mainly a customized plan that’s customizable to their biochemistry and what their physique must turn out to be probably the most fertile self.
Katie: That to me is so hopeful to listen to as a result of I do know I had the expertise within the thyroid world of being advised my labs have been regular and telling a number of docs, however I’m having, my hair is falling out. I’m exhausted. I’m actually taking a nap in entrance of the door so my children can’t run in site visitors. I’m so drained. And they might inform me like, effectively, that’s simply regular when you’ve children. And in hindsight, it was not regular, however I’m so excited to listen to that an increasing number of, particularly in purposeful medication, which I believe is basically main this cost, we’re bearing in mind the precise expertise of the affected person together with the information that we now have a lot extra entry to. It is smart that each of these could be priceless instruments on this course of and never unique of one another by any means.
Are there any widespread dietary issues that you simply see happening or which might be seemingly useful in enhancing fertility or dietary supplements or what are among the type of core locations you begin with that?
Nashat: Yeah, completely. I imply, I actually begin with fundamentals, proper? So I at all times say optimum well being is a lifelong journey as a result of all of us have room for enchancment, together with myself. So far as dietary tips, one of many first issues we need to do is basically eradicate all of the extremely inflammatory meals. So issues like gluten, dairy, soy, corn, peanuts, these are issues that type of proper off the bat, we need to actually eliminate. And I at all times inform my {couples} like, pay attention, this isn’t without end. That is for us to judge and type of lower irritation, lower stress on the physique. After which we will add them again in in a really personalized, gradual, managed method to determine what’s been inflicting the issue.
I imply, there are such a lot of {couples} who come to me and so they don’t assume {that a} sure meals is a matter. And it’s not till we eradicate it after which attempt to add it again in, that we begin to actually perceive what’s taking place within the physique.
I’ll offer you only a whole facet instance, which is, you recognize, pertains to my son. Considered one of my twins was, my different children have been complaining that he was protecting them up as a result of he was loud night breathing a lot. And so, you recognize, I didn’t actually assume an excessive amount of of it, however then, you recognize, ultimately considered one of them took a video and confirmed it to me the subsequent morning and I used to be like, oh my gosh, yeah, he truly will not be actually respiration effectively as a result of he’s loud night breathing so loudly. So he occurred to have a test up with a conventional pediatrician, which I like our pediatrician. And naturally she mentioned, effectively, perhaps he’s received a tonsil and adenoid downside. I believe he actually must go see ENT as a result of that is harmful that he’s respiration like this.
So as an alternative of doing that, I made a decision to eradicate dairy. And inside two weeks the loud night breathing was gone. He not had, you recognize, this runny nostril that had type of sneezing and allergy kind signs. And that’s simply an instance in a baby and he’s solely 10 years previous of how one thing could also be inflicting an underlying type of baseline stage of irritation. And we could not even realize it. I additionally discover that quite a lot of us be taught to dwell with signs that we predict are regular and we don’t actually understand how good we will really feel till they’re gone. After which we have been like, oh, okay, effectively, that is fairly superior. So I’m positive you skilled that with the, within the thyroid house.
Katie: Completely. Each with that after which I believe doing quite a lot of inside work and getting myself out of a state of stress on a regular basis, I didn’t even understand how chronically I had felt all these issues till they went away. And it was drastic. And I do know I keep in mind feeling just like the energizer bunny at first when that first shifted as a result of I simply had all this power I hadn’t had earlier than. I do know additionally in your work and your protocol, you additionally contact on the detox facet. And I really feel like not quite a lot of fertility docs are addressing this and I like that you simply do. Are you able to clarify the cleansing reference to fertility and the way you do this together with your sufferers?
Nashat: Yeah, nice query. So sadly, we dwell in an industrialized world and we’re uncovered to toxins 24/7. And simply the act of getting up and preparing for work within the morning in our own residence exposes most of us to over 200 toxins of which greater than half are personagenic. So fairly scary. There’s quite a lot of issues that we will do in our houses to make them much less poisonous, however the actuality is that we will’t additionally dwell in a bubble. I positively, I don’t assume that’s sensible. I don’t assume it’s sustainable. I don’t dwell in a bubble, however I do adhere to the worth of doing, for example, a quarterly detox.
And so I truly created my first detox program again in 2020 throughout the pandemic. I discovered that individuals have been below an incredible quantity of stress and so they have been actually trying to optimize their well being and caught in their very own houses. And so I created a four-week detox program that I took folks by. And inside the first yr of getting my program, I put over 500 folks by it. And it was superb the transformation that was skilled. And this was a variety of individuals as a result of toxins are saved in fats. And so as soon as we’re capable of flush out toxins, one, there’s quite a lot of issues that change. Our energies shift. I had one girl inform me her eyesight received higher. I had some girls who have been going by menopause and hormonal adjustments that mentioned that that received considerably higher as a result of they have been truly capable of detoxify estrogen.
So detox is basically vital with regards to basic well being. And with regards to fertility, there are quite a lot of toxins that we’re uncovered to which might be truly xenoestrogens. And they also mimic hormones and type of wreak havoc within the physique. So detoxifying your estrogen appropriately is such a crucial a part of a fertility and general well being journey, particularly in my girls who’re struggling with PCOS or endometriosis. They’re going to be in an estrogen dominant state and so they have to have the ability to stability out their hormones and having correctly working detox organs is basically crucial.
I do assume it’s actually vital to speak about the truth that detox is type of just a little little bit of a controversial time period on the market. And I believe after I speak about detox, I’m speaking about an entire meals detox. I’m not speaking about juice cleanses. I’m not speaking about simply dietary supplements and ingesting water. I’m not speaking about ravenous. I’m speaking about consuming a nutrient dense meals that’s balanced and colourful and thoughtfully sourced protein. I’m speaking a couple of detox the place we truly nourish the physique’s cleansing programs naturally.
So for example, our liver has two phases of cleansing. And so to assist Section 1 of our liver detox, we need to nourish the physique with a lot of nutritional vitamins, minerals and vitamins. For Section 2, we want a distribution of amino acids to assist that. And basically what we’re doing after we’re type of revving up the liver, I at all times say the liver is your laundromat, we’re taking like fats soluble toxins, we’re turning them into water soluble toxins in order that our physique can then eliminate them by our breath, sweat, defecation and urination. And so by doing that, we’re type of cleaning the physique of disruptors that could be wreaking havoc and negatively impacting our fertility. And we do it in a really mild method. That’s one other factor individuals are at all times questioning am I going to be within the toilet all day? I’m like, no, completely not. You aren’t. It’s very, very mild. Actually, most of my {couples} and purchasers don’t even know that they’re doing it.
Katie: That’s such an vital distinction. I at all times attempt to keep in mind like detox will not be a factor to your, you do to your physique. Detox is a factor that your physique does naturally that you could assist and make it extra environment friendly at, however it’s already is aware of how to try this. So I’m glad that you simply made that distinction and that if this isn’t like actually harsh cleanses or taking… Know, issues which might be going to flush your physique and deplete you of issues. That is truly simply supporting what the physique already is aware of do in its knowledge and assist it to do it extra effectively or assist to type of like unkink if one thing’s already blocked in you, however your physique already has that knowledge.
You additionally touched on, you talked about PCOS and endometriosis, and I do know these have been two classes I used to be going to ask particularly about as a result of it looks like girls in these classes are sometimes given type of grim information associated to their fertility or that there can at the least be fertility considerations that come together with the analysis in both these situations. However I’m guessing from what you mentioned that these are literally usually resolvable as effectively and sometimes with out excessive measures. However is there a distinction in how you’re employed with girls who’ve PCOS or endometriosis or totally different concerns to concentrate on for ladies who do have these?
Nashat: So sure and no. No in a way that each one that comes into my world is handled as a novel particular person. So PCOS, endometriosis, you recognize, regardless of the circumstance is, you recognize, I see each single one that comes into my world is exclusive as a result of I form of consider all of the physique programs that we’re tackling for fertility as a cobweb. And so if we pull on one factor, the whole lot else goes to shift. The excellent news for ladies with PCOS, which is type of attention-grabbing, I truly had a dialogue with someone the opposite day about this, is that quite a lot of instances with PCOS, girls should not ovulating each single month. And so one of many form of unknown advantages or typically perks is that as a result of they’re not ovulating, a lot all through their life. They are often older in age and nonetheless ovulate and conceive naturally, as a result of their AMH is usually just a little bit greater. Actually, I’ve a lady who I simply spoke with final week who’s 44 and has an AMH of two.4. Now, clearly AMH may also be typically falsely elevated, however nonetheless for probably the most half, since you’re not ovulating as a lot. You recognize, and never, and possibly not each cycle, you’ll have a bigger egg reserve than you even understand that you’ve. So I really feel like that provides quite a lot of girls hope with PCOS.
And there’s quite a lot of issues, like I mentioned, that we will do to detoxify estrogen and stability hormones naturally. That we will get the physique into the appropriate rhythm. One of many different instruments that I forgot to say that I might use fairly intimately in my therapy protocols is I take a look at temperature monitoring as a result of basal physique temperature monitoring over the course of a lady’s cycle offers us quite a lot of perception.
And I at all times, I’m an ER physician, proper? So I’ve spent my profession studying quite a lot of EKGs’ and I type of say that the BBT chart is type of just like the EKG of fertility within the sense that it’s the window into what the physique is doing. I can inform if the follicular and luteal phases are too quick, too lengthy, in the event that they’re ovulating on the proper time, we will additionally see intestine points manifest on a temperature chart. We are able to see thyroid points manifest and on and on. When {couples} come to me, they’re like, effectively, are we going to trace labs each single month? And I’m like, no, not essentially. We could must repeat labs in a sure time period. However so far as what I’m doing on a weekly foundation to maintain monitor, to ensure we’re going the appropriate method is I’m monitoring your signs and I’m monitoring your temperatures. And that provides us a wealth of data.
Katie: I’m so glad you introduced that up. So I’ve been doing a little type of pure household planning for nearly 20 years now. And so I’ve tracked my basal physique temperature over quite a lot of years. And I’ve positively seen after I was within the thyroid points section, I had a a lot decrease basal physique temperature and now it stays a lot greater, which I view as a very good signal as a result of it means hopefully my metabolism is working a lot better. My sleep is definitely improved.
Is it very particular particular person by particular person? I do know that I see, for example, decrease temperatures after which temperature rise within the second half of my cycle very reliably. However inside that sample, are there ultimate ranges of temperature or does that change by individual to individual? So for example, on this a part of my cycle, my basal physique temperature is like 98.2. Is there like a goal we’re aiming for good temperatures in numerous factors of the cycle or is it relative to the person?
Nashat: It’s relative to the person. I actually take a look at the sample. The sample is crucial factor. So estrogen tends to be a really cooling hormone. So we’re on the lookout for low regular temperatures within the first half of the cycle. We’re on the lookout for a spike after you’ve your LH surge in the midst of your cycle. After which progesterone is a really warming hormone.
So we’re on the lookout for a wonderful heat curve in direction of the latter half of the cycle. I do discover that you will have actually rock and roll in cycles in case you do have intestine well being points, in case you’re below quite a lot of stress. I’ve seen some fairly large alterations when it comes to if someone is touring and perhaps going between time zones. And right here’s the humorous factor, I can even inform when someone is dishonest on their eating regimen as a result of their BBT charts held me. So I can inform instantly in the event that they’ve been actually good and perhaps they’ve a cheat week and consuming quite a lot of inflammatory meals as a result of your physique reacts to the whole lot that you simply do. You type of can’t cover from it.
Katie: That’s so fascinating. And I’ve been excited to see extra instruments accessible not too long ago that assist this knowledge be extra accessible to all of us. Like I do know early on for me, it was like particular thermometers having to make an precise bodily paper chart. And now apps can achieve this a lot of this for us. And if I make it simpler in your facet as effectively, as a result of you’ll be able to entry that knowledge in actual time together with your sufferers. However positively on a private stage, I might encourage girls to trace that as a result of it’s really easy now. And it’s such fascinating perception into your well being on a month-to-month foundation. So I’m very excited that that knowledge is now accessible.

What about {couples} who perhaps have been advised that they’ve already been by IVF or IUI and form of been advised they’re a misplaced trigger? Do you’re employed with {couples} like that? And do you discover that that’s not at all times the case, even when conventional medication has given up on them?
Nashat: Nice query and completely. I don’t care if anybody’s… IUI or IVF as a result of we haven’t actually uncovered the foundation explanation for why it hasn’t labored. And really, I’ll inform you a humorous, an amazing story. And that may be a couple that got here into my world. And she or he, we truly assist quite a lot of healthcare suppliers as a result of, you recognize, they discover me relatable as a result of I’m a historically educated board licensed doctor. And so I’ve quite a lot of physicians that we truly assist fighting infertility.
And so this doctor occurs to be an endocrinologist, the irony of it, proper? However she grasp’s hormones, like that’s what she does for a dwelling. And so she got here to me and her husband is a doctor too, he was an inner medication physician and so they had failed seven rounds of IUI. After which they went on and so they did three rounds of IVF. And as an endocrinologist, she knew precisely what was taking place on clearly a way more intimate stage than the everyday lay particular person and sadly ended up getting overstimulated and received actually, actually sick from the entire hormones. So they’d been making an attempt for years, failed all of these rounds, had clearly spent an exorbitant amount of cash after which they discovered me and so they mentioned, effectively, what are you able to do for us as a result of we’re positively not going again to IUI or IVF. We would like is to develop a household. And I used to be like, effectively, let’s see what we will do.
And after I work with {couples}, one of many first issues I requested them to do is within the pre-conception interval, we’ve already, you recognize, outlined as 90 to 120 days. And I believe 12 weeks, it’s type of like that glad place. So I at all times say for the 12 weeks that we’re working collectively, I need us to only take away, you recognize, actively making an attempt from the forefront of our minds and simply deal with our well being, deal with our relationship with our liked one, deal with bonding, you recognize, deal with into me, intimacy, since you need to be intimate and never since you’re making an attempt to create a child and create a life.
And so I had advised this you recognize what, I want you to take a break for 12 weeks. So that you open to that. They mentioned, completely. They got here and so they labored with us. And we received an e mail eight weeks into them working with us, apologizing as a result of they have been pregnant. And it was probably the most heartwarming factor as a result of they have been like, we promised we weren’t making an attempt. However the backside line is right here is that this couple endocrinologist, internist, extremely educated board licensed physicians failed seven rounds of IUI, three failed rounds of IVF, after which get pregnant naturally in eight weeks. And it was not a coincidence is what I’m making an attempt to say.
It’s as a result of we have been truly capable of dial again. You recognize, take a step again, take a fowl’s eye view of the complete physique, not simply our hormones and our fertility organs, determine the foundation trigger after which heal the foundation trigger from the inspiration up to ensure that them to have the ability to conceive naturally. And that’s one thing that I see time and time once more with the {couples} that I work with, is that even when the whole lot else has failed, there truly remains to be an opportunity of pure fertility. We simply have to do the appropriate issues in the appropriate order based mostly on what their physique and biochemistry wants.
Katie: And that’s superb how shortly too, that basically speaks to only how quickly the physique is ready to transfer again to a state of homeostasis. I’m positive even simply taking that stress out for eight weeks was in all probability great for them.
And also you touched on one thing else that I used to be going to ask, which is… That she type of reached a fatigue level with the hormones and the whole lot required for all of these cycles. And I ponder, is there a threat to these form of synthetic hormones being utilized in large doses throughout all these rounds of IUI or IVF?
Nashat: Yeah, sadly, sure, I might say that, you recognize, they are often linked to a lot of continual well being situations. You recognize, there are many hormone imbalances that may ensue afterwards. I can’t inform you what number of girls have come to me after having gone by all these hormones and saying, you recognize, my physique is destroyed. Now I’ve horrible sleep. I’ve gained, you recognize, 30 kilos. I’ve quite a lot of mind fog. You recognize, my muscle mass has been depleted as a result of what they’re doing is that they’re actually, like I say in my free masterclass on-line, that, you recognize, the standard method is mainly forcing being pregnant on a physique that’s. Screaming I’m prepared.
And, you recognize, and so it’s simply, it’s unhappy as a result of it clearly does have quite a lot of negative effects. And naturally, you recognize, there’s, you recognize, there are, there’s some knowledge on the market to point that it may probably improve threat of sure varieties of most cancers. It clearly actually is dependent upon what the person routine is, you recognize, within the conventional method, there are such a lot of totally different regimens that may be given to a lady in numerous levels of stimulation. So I wouldn’t really feel snug making a blanket assertion, however I can say universally that it’s not a nice expertise. I went by it myself and I used to be very conservative with my doses precisely for that motive. However I nonetheless felt horrible within the course of.
And, you recognize, and I actually… My coronary heart breaks when I’ve {couples} which have come to me in that state of exhaustion after having gone by all of that. After which they arrive to me after which after the actual fact, they are saying, why didn’t we discover you sooner? You recognize, I want we had achieved this primary. Now, I do need to say that there’s a place for IUI and IVF, and it’s not that I’m not a believer in it. I simply consider in uncovering the foundation trigger and therapeutic the physique from the within out, optimizing well being. And actually exhausting all of our pure routes earlier than we flip to that, as a result of the truth is that. If we put together the physique and lay the inspiration earlier than we do IUI and IVF, we’re truly going to have a lot greater success charges of the process themselves.
You recognize, one of many issues additionally that I discover is just a little bit deceptive is when a fertility clinic quotes successful price, it’s over six rounds of IVF, not one. I don’t learn about you, however I don’t know any girl who desires to undergo six rounds of IVF. I don’t know anybody, any girl who’s been capable of maintain that. I type of see folks tapping out. I believe probably the most I’ve had is perhaps 4 or 5, however no one desires to undergo six cycles. It’s not sustainable.
Katie: Yeah. Nicely, that makes full sense too, that even when somebody does find yourself going the IVF route, that addressing all of this stuff would improve the chance of a constructive consequence there as effectively. It’s like I usually speak about in different areas of basic wellness, it’s like in case you dial within the foundational issues, the sleep, the morning daylight, the hydration and eating regimen, simply mild motion, all these issues, the rest you do this may be extra biohacking or extra sophisticated or dietary supplements that value cash, these are all going to be more practical in case you get these foundational items in line first. And it makes whole sense to me that that will even be the case within the fertility house as effectively.
And I might guess for lots of people listening, perhaps they’re someplace on the spectrum of this or should not even making an attempt to get pregnant proper now, however it may be a consideration for the long run. Are there any form of good basic ideas at both totally different ages or simply basically good ideas to keep up our fertility so long as potential? After which additionally simply to maintain our hormones wholesome as we become old with fertility being linked to well being in so many different methods past simply having a child. Are there any good basic tips for all of us to remember?
Nashat: Yeah, completely. So I’ve a free obtain, which is the ten steps to optimum well being, which I actually assume is type of a baseline basis for anyone making an attempt to optimize their well being, actually at any age, and actually making ready for preconception. And a few of these ideas are issues that you simply’ve already touched on.
Sleep might be one of the underrated well being advocacy actions that anyone may take. And so I’m a agency believer in eight to 9 hours. And the factor is, we don’t simply need amount. We would like high quality of sleep. So I put on this little factor, an Oura ring, as a result of it helps me monitor. You bought one, too. It helps me monitor my sleep phases. And I do know actually in actual time whether or not I’m getting prime quality sleep or not. And typically it tells me after I’ve woken up in the midst of the evening, and I don’t even do not forget that I’ve woken up and had damaged sleep. So sleep is basically vital.
Hydration is one thing else that’s actually underrated. I at all times say you actually need to take half your physique weight in kilos, and that’s what number of ounces that it is best to drink over the course of the day. And in case you are consuming caffeine or exercising, then you definitely positively need to discuss just a little bit extra onto that. I personally drink about three liters a day to remain hydrated.
Daylight is one thing you talked about that’s large. Getting simply good previous daylight and having your ft on the bottom, grounding is basically vital. Daylight, often simply quarter-hour a day, particularly within the morning if you are able to do it. It actually does assist set the stage on your circadian rhythm and in addition enhance the standard of your sleep. What else?
Meals is basically, actually vital. Sadly, the nutrient density of our meals has plummeted as a result of most of us don’t eat seasonally anymore. So I at all times say, in case you can attempt to eat seasonally and the way do you do this simply? Go to a farmer’s market. That’s in all probability the best method to eat seasonally is as a result of in case you go to a farmer’s market, more often than not what they’ve goes to be solely the stuff that’s in season. I additionally say if you’re buying, persist with the perimeter of the grocery retailer. That’s the place you’re going to seek out all of your perishables and your lean proteins.
And likewise, supply your protein thoughtfully. So issues like you recognize, grass fed beef, you recognize, hormone free and antibiotic free natural hen ideally free vary, you recognize, all these varieties of issues are going to contribute to you nourishing your physique with extra nutrient-dense meals. As a result of I’m additionally a agency believer, sure, we want dietary supplements. I do use dietary supplements routinely with my {couples} with a purpose to velocity up the therapeutic course of. However it’s not for me, dietary supplements should not without end. You recognize, in a really perfect world, we actually need to use a meals first method. And I do this with quite a lot of my {couples}. So girls who, for example, have low progesterone and rather a lot or half of a cycle, are actually going to attempt to assist them with progesterone-forming meals and so forth. Quite than, you recognize, turning to, for example, a prescription or including one other complement. I imply, if we now have to do it, we are going to, after all, as a result of we need to get them, most {couples} who come to me are very anxious to start out, you recognize, making an attempt to get pregnant. So we need to make the therapeutic course of as fast as potential.
However I believe in anyone who’s not actively in that section, and, you recognize, you actually need to set your self up for optimum well being, i believe simply doing among the tenets motion is clearly a very vital one too. Ensuring you’re getting your steps in day-after-day and ensuring you’re getting a mixture of energy coaching and, you recognize, cardio train. I believe muscle energy might be one of the underrated issues too, as we become old. The quantity of muscle mass that you’ve actually units the stage on your metabolism and vibrancy and longevity. So I believe muscle density and muscle energy is basically vital too. So these are only a few. I believe I’ve extra on my free obtain that our listeners can positively entry.
Katie: I’ll be certain these hyperlinks are included within the present notes and positively echo what you say, particularly about muscle and that the information on that’s actually compelling and we all know that that improves quite a lot of outcomes as we become old, not simply fertility, however even our threat of all-cause mortality and threat of harm, all of these issues are correlated with having sufficient muscle and we do lose some naturally as we age. So I really feel like that as a spotlight, particularly for ladies, is such an amazing factor to deal with.
And I might love to only dispel just a little extra of the parable as effectively as a result of i do know after I was having infants, I had all of mine by 29, however I keep in mind girls being there similtaneously me and anyone over 35 was advised they have been superior to maternal age. And I do know girls are advised fertility declines and it’s very laborious to get pregnant after 35. I might love to listen to your expertise with that and in case you’ve seen {couples} be capable of get pregnant naturally after age 35 and as much as what age is that probably potential?
Nashat: So I get that query rather a lot and I by no means need to put an age on it as a result of it simply is dependent upon your biochemistry. I imply, I’ve a lady who I talked to the opposite day who’s 44 and has an AMH of like 2.5 as a result of she’s had PCOS. She has common cycles. She has zero indicators on her labs and her signs of being perimenopausal. And so she’s someone that I advised, you recognize what, I can get you pregnant naturally. Completely.
So I had all my children after the age of 35. I went by unnecessarily, you recognize, invasive therapies with a purpose to have my children as a result of I didn’t know then what I do know now. However I don’t actually see 35 as a deterrent. That I work with, the ladies that I work with, are over the age of 35. I do get some which might be youthful, however for probably the most half they… Over the age of 35 and I at all times inform them, you recognize, age is only a quantity. You recognize, there’s a lot that we will do. You recognize, I’m very clear. I do consider in that too. So after I do my discovery calls with my {couples}, I’m at all times very upfront and I inform them, you recognize, if I don’t assume I can assist you, I’m going to be the primary to inform you what the probabilities are. And I’m going to offer you my, you recognize, greatest skilled recommendation as to, you recognize, probably the most logical and greatest subsequent step.
However, you recognize, I’ve additionally been very pleasantly shocked. There have been {couples} the place I assumed, you recognize, this will not work and so they’ve ended up getting pregnant naturally. So I type of say the sky’s the restrict. I imply, clearly if someone is having irregular cycles and having menopausal signs, you recognize, these are, that’s when for me, it’s extra the signs which might be going to drive that quantity slightly than the precise age itself. I imply, we all know that clearly it turns into tougher. I imply, the statistics make that very clear, however I don’t assume it’s simply age. I believe it’s multifactorial is the underside line.
Katie: That is smart. And I do know you’ve so many extra assets accessible in your web site and then you definitely work immediately with {couples} as effectively. I’ll be certain all of these hyperlinks are within the present notes so folks that may discover you and work with you immediately. However I like that you simply’re spreading this message of the physique’s capacity to heal and transfer again to a state of fertility, even when folks have been advised by conventional medication that they aren’t going to have the ability to have a child. And I like the work that you simply’re doing and the way purpose-driven it’s for you and the way your journey has been. So I’ll be certain these hyperlinks are included within the present notes. And a few questions I like to ask on the finish of interviews. The primary being if there’s a e book or variety of books which have had a profound impression on you personally and if that’s the case, what they’re and why.
Nashat: Gosh, I’ve so many to record, however I’m going to select the newest one. And the newest one is a Joe Dispenza e book, which is Breaking the Behavior of Being Your self. What was actually fascinating about that e book is that it actually impressed me to attend a deep self-development retreat again in March, which was all about actually figuring out habits patterns in childhood and determining how they’re manifesting in my grownup life. And never simply understanding the habits patterns, however truly studying to rewire my mind into a brand new method of being. And I really feel like that idea is so crucial to every of our respective well being journeys, whether or not we’re making an attempt to get pregnant, whether or not we’re making an attempt to stability our hormones, whether or not we’re making an attempt to only turn out to be the healthiest model of ourselves, no matter our private well being objectives is, as a result of new habits are actually, actually laborious to kind. And quite a lot of us have been caught on this vicious cycle and a rut as a result of life is busy and life is consuming.
And having the instruments and the information to have the ability to rewire your mind and type of create a brand new model of your self has been actually, actually highly effective for me previously six months or so. And I’ve been capable of actually apply that to the supply of my care to my {couples} and my sufferers, as a result of all of us, with a purpose to optimize well being, are going to be required to make quite a lot of life-style adjustments which may really feel like we’re going just a little bit towards the grain. In order that’s in all probability considered one of my favorites proper now.
Katie: I like that. I’ll put that hyperlink within the present notes as effectively. And lastly, any parting recommendation for the listeners in the present day that might be associated to the whole lot we’ve talked about or totally unrelated recommendation that you simply discover useful.
Nashat: Yeah, I simply say don’t lose hope. And, you recognize, I don’t subscribe to the idea that as we become old, you recognize, we begin to really feel extra drained, we begin to get fatter, we begin to have poorer sleep. I don’t subscribe to any of that. And that is alluding to what you mentioned earlier, Katie, I do consider that you’re the CEO of your personal well being.
And I do really feel like it’s important that each considered one of us are at all times striving to optimize our well being and actually additionally perceive the “why”. I don’t consider in band-aid approaches. I don’t consider simply in doing what your physician says. I consider in actually understanding why you’re doing what you’re doing to be able to make an intentional knowledgeable alternative to be able to dwell an extended, vibrant life. And the entire {couples} on the market struggling to get pregnant, there’s hope. And simply because someone has advised you that you could’t get pregnant or that you simply want a donor egg or that is by no means going to occur for you, I say comply with your intestine. I at all times ask my {couples}, like, do you’re feeling like in your intestine you may get pregnant naturally? And 9 instances out of 10 of individuals speaking to me say sure, however I’ve been advised in any other case. And my recommendation is belief your intestine.
Katie: I like that. I believe that’s an ideal place to wrap up for in the present day. This has been such a enjoyable dialog. Like I mentioned, I like the work you’re doing and I’m so glad we lastly received to talk. Thanks a lot on your time and for being right here.
Nashat: Thanks, Katie, it’s been a pleasure. Honored to be right here, thanks.
